ZIP Code 13078

Households in ZIP code 13078, near Syracuse, bring in a median of $119,191 a year, with per-capita income at $64,252 — earnings that sit well above many Upstate New York communities. A median home value of $313,000 means property taxes run about 2.44% of assessed value at the county level, a real line item for owners here. Add the 8.00% combined sales tax on purchases, and daily spending carries its own cost. Even so, incomes at this level leave room to cover both, with housing and consumption taxes absorbing a workable share of annual earnings.
